This will be a quick post today, I'm in the middle of reading an amazing book and seriously all I want to do is finish it! LOL! Awhile ago Anutka of Wacky Laki posted a stunning mani based off an opal. As soon as I saw it I knew I had to recreate it!
I started with 2 easy coats of my favourite OPI My Boyfriend Scales the Walls and then added a coat of Finger Paints Motley a blue green flakie. Then I stamped using BM-201 and Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Blue Streak. I was hoping to capture the flakies more in my pictures, but I did this right when I got home from school and I didn't have my normal photo set up yet. So I tried taking pictures in the sun, which didn't come out until the next day.
My favourite thing about this manicure was that as soon as I finished it my mom looked at it and wanted the exact same thing on her nails!
I loved this swirly subtle stamping look! I wish I had been able to capture the flakies colour shift better here. Just imagine it was awesome ok? ;)
I'm back to my book! Hope you're all having a great day!
Very pretty combo!
